Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 19 Returning to the Heaven Path World

Ding Hao was stunned.

This extremely weak aura, like some mysterious power or some twisted power of the rules, was extremely weak. If Ding Hao had not observed it at a close distance, he would not have felt it.

As for the others, even experts in the True Immortal Realm wouldn’t be able to sense the existence of such distorted magical laws.

How could there be such an aura in Xiao Aiguo’s body?

Was it because he was suffering from an incurable disease?

Ding Hao was lost in thought.

This discovery shocked him.

After thinking for a while, Ding Hao slowly left Xiao Aiguo’s ward and turned to observe every patient in the hospital, especially those who were suffering from terminal diseases.

Ding Hao unsealed the seal of his own power, spread out his Divine Senses, and observed carefully.

From these dying patients, Ding Hao more or less sensed a strange force similar to the dark power of Hades True Immortal. It contained the terrible power of death, but it was also different.

“Why is there such power on Earth? Is it a variation of some dark power?” Ding Hao thought.

For a long time, Ding Hao had never appeared in the hospital.

Because Ding Shengtan and his wife were both strong masters of the Mysterious Tao, and Ding Hao’s constitution was originally at a stunningly powerful level, they never needed to go to the hospital. Ding Hao had never been to the hospital, and he had never carefully observed patients on the verge of death as he did today.

The dark power seemed to have grown on Earth, but it was not a threat yet.

What Ding Hao had to do was return to the Heaven Path as soon as possible and find out if such dark power existed there.

Before he returned to the Heaven Path, there was a small problem before him.

When Ding Hao returned to Xiao Aiguo’s ward, Xiaoxiao’s mother was persuaded to go back to rest. These days, she and her daughter took turns looking after Xiao Aiguo.

Ding Hao looked at Xiaoxiao, who was extremely sad, and then looked at Xiao Aiguo, who was struggling on the edge of death.

Xiaoxiao was his playmate who grew up with him. She was an innocent and kind girl. She shouldn’t suffer the pain of losing her loved one at such a young age. Xiao Aiguo was a simple worker and one of the few people who treated Ding Hao the best in his childhood. In any case, he shouldn’t be deprived of the right to live in the world at his age.

Ding Hao could also control everything on Earth.

However, there were still thousands of people like Xiao Aiguo on Earth. Such tragedies were happening constantly.

Ding Hao was comprehending ordinary life on Earth. His first principle was not to change the rules of this world or to interfere with the laws of this world.

Perhaps the fate of Xiao Aiguo was the embodiment of the laws of nature in this world.

If Ding Hao took action, would it disturb the Wheel of Fate that belonged to this world just like everything he did in the Heaven Path world?

When a person was omnipotent, he might face a lot of difficulties.

However, this problem did not bother Ding Hao for too long. He finally made up his mind.

“I need to save him!”

Ding Hao felt that before he completely sorted out the doubts in his heart, he should not do something that might make him regretful in the future because of his confusion.

Ding Hao had always been an emotional person.

Xiaoxiao, who was still sitting on the edge of the bed, was looking at her father in a daze. She was probably recalling everything about him in the past.

At this moment, Xiaoxiao felt someone pat her on the shoulder. She turned her head and looked over.

It was Ding Hao. He was hinting that he had something to say.

Xiaoxiao stood up and turned to face him with a puzzled look.

There were only three people in the ward. Xiao Aiguo was unconscious at this time, and the vital signs instrument next to him was making faint beeps.

Ding Hao looked at Xiaoxiao seriously, who was at a loss for a moment.

“I have something to tell you,” Ding Hao suddenly said very seriously.

Xiaoxiao was stunned.

“Before that, I’ll show you something.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ding Hao slowly stretched out his right hand. There was a faint green light ball flashing on his right palm.

Xiaoxiao could not help but be shocked.

She saw that the light ball in Ding Hao’s hand was getting brighter and brighter, and it could even be said to be dazzling. This light ball stretched and shrank, like a beating heart full of vitality. The green light coming out of the light ball suddenly illuminated the whole room.

When the light reached its peak, Ding Hao slowly walked up to Xiao Aiguo and gently drew a circle in front of him with his right hand. Then, with a slight turn of his palm, the green light ball floating on his palm slid into Xiao Aiguo’s body like a drop of water.

Instantly, Xiao Aiguo’s whole body began to glow with green light.

“Your father will wake up in a while. After he wakes up, he will completely recover. You don’t need to worry,” Ding Hao said to Xiaoxiao.

At this time, Xiaoxiao’s eyes were not as shocked as they were at the beginning. She did not say a word and looked straight at Ding Hao.

This smart girl seemed to have understood something.

Xiaoxiao didn’t ask, so Ding Hao continued, “I don’t belong to this world.”

There was silence in the ward.

Then, Xiaoxiao finally said, “I knew it. I knew that you were not an ordinary person.”

Under the influence of the green light, Xiaoxiao’s voice seemed to have returned to its usual sweetness.

At this time, the sweet voice was trembling. Xiaoxiao’s eyes were wet again. She seemed to have guessed something.

“Well, I may have to leave this world,” Ding Hao said. He sounded so calm as if he was stating a matter of course.

“Will you… come back?” Xiaoxiao asked cautiously.

She lowered her head and quietly waited for Ding Hao’s answer.

Ding Hao did not answer immediately.

...

Xiaoxiao raised her head and looked at him expectantly.

At this time, Ding Hao also looked at her and nodded slightly to her.

Xiaoxiao smiled, and tears welled up in her eyes again.

Xiaoxiao really wanted to open her arms and hug the man in front of her, but she hesitated. She didn’t know when she would be able to see him again. She wanted to keep it as one of her wishes.

“This is for you.” Ding Hao took out an exquisite mutton-fat jade pendant.

Xiaoxiao took it and held it in her hand. She looked at the jade pendant and then at Ding Hao.

“Keep it with you. It will protect you,” Ding Hao said simply.

He added, “In this world, live a good life. Also, it’s time for you to get a boyfriend!”

Xiaoxiao slowly shifted her gaze back to the jade pendant in her hand. Her tears sparkled as she nodded.

“Brother Hao…” When she looked up and was about to say something, Ding Hao had disappeared.

“You… must come back!”

...

Xiaoxiao stood there in a daze.

“Xiaoxiao!”

A long-lost and familiar voice sounded in Xiaoxiao’s ear.

It was Xiao Aiguo calling Xiaoxiao. As if waking up from a dream, Xiaoxiao turned around and looked at the hospital bed.

By this time, Xiao Aiguo had sat up and was looking at Xiaoxiao with a puzzled face. Before he could figure out the situation, he saw his daughter rush over, hug him tightly, and burst into tears.

Xiao Aiguo gently patted her back and said gently, “It’s okay, it’s okay, I’m fine! I just suddenly felt weak and everything went black. Look, I’m awake now, and nothing happened to me. I’m sorry that I made you worry.”

In the ward, Xiao Aiguo was still comforting his daughter.

He seemed to have forgotten what had happened before.

Xiaoxiao’s wails did not stop. It sounded like she was venting her anger and fear as if she was afraid that the person closest to her would say goodbye to her forever. It also sounded like she was crying and complaining that the person she loved the most had left her.

After a long time, the patrolling doctor was shocked by Xiao Aiguo’s recovery.

Not only had this man, who was terminally ill, been cured, but his complexion didn’t look like he had just recovered at all.

“This is a medical miracle!”

The next day, after the doctor conducted a detailed examination of Xiao Aiguo, he found that there was no symptom in him at all. The diseases that had accumulated over the years like arthritis and rheumatism had all disappeared.

When the news spread, the whole hospital was shocked.

Some media had once requested an interview with Xiao Aiguo, but he rejected it. Xiao Aiguo had always believed that he wasn’t ill and that the hospital had misdiagnosed him. On the other hand, Xiaoxiao also objected to the interview, since she didn’t want to cause any unnecessary trouble.

In fact, Xiao Aiguo, who had just recovered from a serious illness, not only had a ruddy face.

He had been described as withered but suddenly returned to a healthy and strong state in previous years. All of this was naturally Ding Hao’s credit.

Ding Hao had applied an inscription tactical deployment to the jade pendant he left behind. It could protect Xiaoxiao at a critical moment. On the other hand, when the jade pendant sensed the rise of dark power, it would alarm Ding Hao, who was far away in the world of the Heaven Path.

Although the dark power on Earth was still weak, he had to be on his guard.

That night, Ding Hao left the hospital and returned to his house in Henshire to say goodbye to his parents. For more than three years, Ding Hao had been with his parents. He took great care of them, and Ding Shengtan and Yu Qingcheng had no other expectations.

Ding Hao’s farewell this time was within their expectations, and it was even later than they had expected. They only hoped that Ding Hao could completely remove the remaining obstacles within the Heaven Path. As for the aftermath on Earth, the couple would deal with it themselves.

…

In the world of the Heaven Path.

Ding Hao had stayed on Earth for more than three years. For the Heaven Path world, more than a thousand years had passed.

During these long ages, generations of geniuses appeared, and the elderly died. Geniuses had emerged in every generation.

Even if a supreme master like Ding Hao had once left a heavy mark on this world, his prestige and fame had gradually faded away.

Especially in the past thousand years, Ding Hao had deliberately diluted his influence and had never appeared in the world of the Heaven Path. Over the long years, those glorious memories had withered with the passage of time. Those rising stars were all extremely confident and conceited and had begun to create their own myths.

Ding Hao’s disappearance made some people begin to grow restless.
